abstract
In the current work, we study the influence of a finite volume on $2+1$ $SU(3)$ Polyakov Quark-Meson model (PQM) order parameters, (fluctuations) correlations of conserved charges and the quark-hadron phase boundary. Our study of the PQM model order parameters and the (fluctuations) correlations of conserved charges indicates a sizable shift of the quark-hadron phase boundary to higher values of baryon chemical potential ($\mu_{B}$) and temperature ($T$) for decreasing the system volume. The detailed study of such effect could have important implications for the extraction of the (fluctuations) correlations of conserved charges of the QCD phase diagram from heavy ion data.

Finite size effects on the phase diagram and the baryon fluctuations via momentum space constraints
Finite-volume momentum-space constraints in a mean-field quark-meson model shift the critical endpoint significantly for L<10 fm and displace baryon fluctuation signals, with the shift direction depending on the chosen scenario.
